I just kept waiting for a punchline, but none ever came!

I like this bit the best:

"To test the theory about landing on other planets, the only
thing to do is to stop sending out those probes until we see
if the weather returns to normal. If it doesn't, the problem
probably is the launches themselves."

Obviously not someone with even a cursory relationship with
the scientific method or the difference between cause and
effect and positive correlation.

Or with a real grasp on the values involved in altering the
orbit of a planet.
